SIM Owner Details by Network: Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, SCOM & ONIC — Your Checks, Your Codes
Two kinds of SIM checks exist in Pakistan, and knowing the split saves you an hour of wrong codes. Registry checks are national: CNIC to 668 or cnic.sims.pk counts your SIMs on all six networks at once. Operator checks are local: your own number, biometric status and blocking run on each network’s own channels, and each does it differently. This hub sorts sim owner details by network so you dial the right thing the first time — the full toolkit lives at Check SIM Owner Details Pakistan.
Key takeaways
- Universal first: 668 (about Rs 2) or cnic.sims.pk (free) counts your SIMs across all six operators in one reply.
- Per network: own-number dials and BVS status codes differ — Jazz answers *99#, Zong prefers its app, Ufone’s BVS is *336*1#.
- Every code below is dated and labelled: operator-documented vs community-standard.
- Prefixes are hints, not proof — porting moved millions of numbers; 76367 settles a number’s real network.
- Nobody’s network has a stranger-lookup: identity stays sealed under PECA Section 16 on all six.
The boundary first, as always. Everything on this page is self-service: your SIMs, your CNIC, your codes. No operator offers a lawful way to pull a stranger’s identity from a number — not Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, SCOM or ONIC. Hunting one is an offence, mapped on our legality page.

One registry, six operators: the split that matters
Pakistan’s SIM system has a shape most guides never explain. Underneath sits one national registry — SVMS, the Subscriber Verification Management System — where every SIM binds to a CNIC through biometric activation. On top sit six operators, each with its own self-service channels for what the registry does not answer. Which number does this SIM carry, is its fingerprint verification in order, how do you block it when the phone disappears — those live with the operator.
So every by-network question splits in two. Ask the registry when the question is about your identity: how many SIMs, on which networks, since when. And take the operator route when the question is about one SIM in your hand. Mix the two up and you end up texting Jazz codes at Zong SIMs, which is where half the “code nahi chal raha” complaints come from.
This hub gives each network its own card — codes dated, labelled, and linked to a deeper guide where one exists. Two of those deep guides are live today: the Jazz number check and the Zong number check. The Ufone codes guide already covers the trickiest network of the four.
The universal four: checks that ignore branding
| Question | Do this | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| How many SIMs on my CNIC, all networks? | CNIC to 668 — full guide — or free at cnic.sims.pk (portal guide) | about Rs 2 / free |
| Is the SIM in my hand registered? | SMS MNP to 667 from that SIM — 667 guide | standard SMS |
| Which network serves this number today? | N + number to 76367 — 76367 guide | about Rs 2 |
| Is my SIM’s fingerprint layer verified? | Your network’s BVS code — BVS guide, per-network cards below | standard SMS |
Run the first row monthly and the rest when a specific SIM raises a question; the count decoder reads the 668 reply line by line. Everything below assumes you know which network you are dealing with — when in doubt, row three settles it.
Jazz (and the Warid inheritance)
Pakistan’s largest network is also its best-documented. Jazz publishes its own-number dial, *99#, on its Smart Tips page — the rare code you can cite to the operator itself. Biometric status answers to your CNIC texted to 6001; the helpline is 111; Jazz World is the app route.
The Jazz-specific trap is history. Warid merged into Jazz years ago, so 0320–0329 numbers are Jazz numbers wearing old jerseys — and Jazz codes work on them. Steps, fallbacks and the balance-zero detail live in the Jazz number check guide.
Zong: the app-first network
Zong runs self-service through My Zong, and its website documents no own-number USSD at all. The widely-dialled *8# is community practice — real but unadvertised, which is exactly how codes retire without notice. BVS status is the single letter V to 7911; the helpline is 310.
Traditional ranges are 0310–0319 with 0360–0369 alongside, hints only in the porting era. The dial-first, app-second routine is written out in the Zong number check guide.
Telenor: post-merger, codes live
Telenor Pakistan is now part of the PTML group; the amalgamation cleared court by 1 July 2026. For your checks, nothing changed: SIMs, 0340–0349 prefixes and codes keep working while the brands converge. Our news changelog tracks each integration step with dates.
Day to day: the community dial *8888# circulates for own-number, My Telenor is the documented route, and the helpline is 345. The BVS check is the friendliest of the six — any SMS, even blank, to 7751, a detail PTA’s own page confirms.
Ufone: the corrected-code network
Ufone earned its own 60.5k-search guide because its codes are the most miscopied in Pakistan. The own-number dial is *780*3# (alternate *1#), community-standard, with the UPTCL app and 333 as the documented routes. The BVS code is the famous correction: *336*1#, settled against PTA’s own post on 11 July 2026, after years of guides printing broken variants.
Prefixes run 0330–0338, and the network doubles as host for ONIC below. Every dial, fallback and fix: the Ufone number check guide.
SCOM: the mountain operator
SCOM is the state-run network of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan — in many valleys, the only signal there is. Self-service runs through the SCO app and helpline 355 (24/7 from SCOM numbers, UAN 111-726-726 from elsewhere), with biometric matters handled at customer service centres rather than by SMS code.
Its 0355–0357 series marks the region. Every universal check above works unchanged: SCOM SIMs live in the same registry, count in the same 668 reply, and follow the same disowning rules at the counter.
ONIC: app-native, eSIM-first
ONIC is the newest name here and the easiest to misunderstand. It is not a seventh licence but an app-native brand riding Ufone’s network — eSIM-first, with the whole service surface inside the Onic app. PTA’s own clarification pinned that parentage when the brand launched.
Numbers issue on 0339 and the 0371–0379 series. Activation still requires the same live NADRA fingerprint as plastic SIMs, so an ONIC line appears in your 668 count like any other. App-only forward, registry-standard underneath.
Prefix traps and the porting truth
| Series | Traditionally | The trap |
|---|---|---|
| 0300–0309 | Jazz | Porting moved millions of numbers between operators while the digits stayed. Every row here is a hint from history, not proof of today — the registry answer costs about Rs 2: N + number to 76367. |
| 0320–0329 | Jazz (ex-Warid) | |
| 0310–0319 · 0360–0369 | Zong | |
| 0340–0349 | Telenor | |
| 0330–0338 · 0339/037X | Ufone · ONIC | |
| 0355–0357 | SCOM |
Recharges onto the wrong network do not bounce back; on-net bundles aimed at ported friends quietly burn money. The two-rupee habit beats both, and the 76367 guide shows the exact format.
Wrong network on your record? The fix
The by-network view earns its keep the day your 668 reply shows a network you never signed up for. Fixing it is universal: original CNIC to that operator’s franchise, the word “disowning”, fee capped at Rs 200 and waived where fraud is shown. Screenshot the count first, keep the reference slip after.
Timing matters more than it used to. Since PTA’s 24 May 2026 advisory, new SIMs are locked against disowning and transfer for 365 days, so the monthly audit habit is what keeps strangers’ SIMs from settling in. A full counter walkthrough sits in our twelve official methods, and the fingerprint layer behind all of it in the BVS guide.
Frequently asked questions
Which SIM check works the same on every network?
The registry pair: SMS your 13-digit CNIC to 668 (about Rs 2) or use cnic.sims.pk free. Both count your SIMs across Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone, SCOM and ONIC in one reply, because all six write into the same SVMS registry.
Why are the own-number and BVS codes different per network?
Those services run on each operator’s own systems, not PTA’s. That is why Jazz answers *99# while Zong leans on its app, and why the BVS status channel changes shape four times: 6001, 7751, V-7911 and *336*1#.
How do I find sim owner details by network for a stranger’s number?
You don’t, on any network — that is a PECA Section 16 offence, not a missing feature. What stays legal by network is your own side: which operator serves a number (76367) and what your own record carries (668).
My number ported years ago. Which network’s codes do I use?
Use the current operator’s codes. Porting moves the service while the digits stay, so run N plus the number to 76367 first if you are unsure, then use that network’s own-number and BVS channels.
Do SCOM and ONIC SIMs show in the 668 count?
Yes. SCOM (the state operator in AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan) and ONIC (the app-first brand on Ufone’s network) both register SIMs against CNICs in the national registry. Both appear in 668 and portal results.
A SIM from a network I never used is on my CNIC. Now what?
Disown it at that operator’s franchise with your original CNIC — fee capped at Rs 200, waived in fraud cases. Screenshot your 668 or portal result first; since 24 May 2026, new SIMs carry a 365-day lock, so act the week you spot it.
Did the Telenor merger change any Telenor code?
No. Telenor Pakistan amalgamated into PTML (the Ufone group) with court approval by 1 July 2026, but its SIMs, prefixes and codes keep working while brands converge. We re-check that page whenever the integration moves.
Which of these codes cost money?
The registry SMS 668 and the 76367 lookup cost about Rs 2 each, while the portal is entirely free. Own-number dials like *99# and *8# show on screen at no charge, even on zero balance, and BVS status texts ride standard SMS rates.
Roman Urdu mein
Pakistan mein SIM checks do qisam ke hain. Qaumi check har network par aik jaisa hai: apna 13-hindsa CNIC 668 par SMS karein (about Rs 2) ya cnic.sims.pk free kholein — chhaon networks ki ginti aik jawab mein. Network wale checks alag-alag hain: apna number Jazz par *99#, Zong/Telenor/ONIC par app, Ufone par *780*3#. Biometric status: Jazz 6001, Telenor 7751 (khali SMS chalta hai), Zong V-7911, Ufone *336*1#. Prefix par bharosa na karein — porting ke baad N + number 76367 par bhej kar asal network poochein. Ghalat network ki SIM record par nikle to asli CNIC ke sath usi network ki franchise par disowning (≤ Rs 200). Kisi ajnabi ka naam kisi network par legal nahi.
